Setting up NTP

Hi all

I am lookig for the procedure to setup a NTP server and clients. I would like to setup a machine in my DMZ that would be a client to a external time server and all my internal systems to be clients of the machine in the DMZ.

I am on AIX 5.2 and the machine that will be in the DMZ will be a 4.33 system.

Thx
J

You can start here... http://www.ntp.org/

Or check and see if your vendor offers ntp. I know that HPUX does for our systems.

put your timeservers IP address in the /etc/ntp.conf

Mine looks similar to:

---
driftfile /etc/ntp.drift
tracefile /etc/ntp.trace
server 10.19.21.93 version 3
---


then start the daemon:

startsrc -s xntpd
